Abstract

Three cytotoxic dihydroxanthone derivatives, nidulalin A(1), F390B(2), and F390C(3) were evaluated for inhibitory activity against DNA topoisomerases. Compounds 1 and 2 inhibited DNA Topoisomerase II with IC50 values of 2.2 microM and 16 microM, and 3 inhibited DNA Topoisomerase I with an IC50 value of 5.9 microM.
